The following ﬁtting guide is for Reeded Mouldings.

If you have any queries please contact our technical helpline on 0800 085 3475.

Please note:

All components should be inspected BEFORE installation commences for any damage, as

Cheshire Mouldings cannot be held responsible for any damage caused during installation.

We do not recommend the use of a sharp blade to open the packaging as this may damage the product.

Tools required:

Tape measure, pencil, adhesive, nail gun, saw & spirit level.

Preparation:

Before you install, ensure that the wall is clean and smooth and remove any nails or screws etc.

If you are drilling and inserting screws into the wall or using a nail gun, we recommend that you

use a pipe & cable detector ﬁrst, especially when working close to light switches and power sockets.

Identify and mark these locations onto the wall so you can ﬁx around them.

Wall Panelling with Large Reed Moulding

To create a textured panelled wall using the large reeded moulding

34mm x 6mm, measure up from top of skirting to your preferred

height and mark location on wall (Fig 1).

Please note – as these lengths come in 2.4m lengths, consider

how many cut lengths you will get from each length, i.e 3 x 800mm

lengths, 2 x 1200mm length etc.

With the wall marked, cut a length which will act as a dado rail.

Sand ends lightly. Apply a long bead of adhesive to the back face

and offer up to height mark on wall. Check square using a spirit

level. Secure with nail gun (Fig 1).

Next, measure distance between top of skirting and underside of

dado. Mark and cut moulding to length. Sand ends. Apply adhesive

bead along length and offer up to wall. Press ﬁrmly and check

vertical using spirit level. Secure with nail gun (Fig 2).

Take next moulding, apply adhesive and push up to moulding just

ﬁxed and secure with nail gun. Repeat procedure, checking every

3rd moulding with spirit level. Repeat until full wall is complete

(Fig 3).

If there is a power socket along the span of wall being panelled,

cut pieces so they ﬁt up to and around the socket (Fig 4).

Alternatively, for a different look, after securing the dado and

before you start ﬁtting the vertical mouldings, measure the

power socket and cut/mitre 4 x pieces and ﬁx around the socket

as above to create a frame (Fig 5).

Paint or stain to ﬁnish.

Panel & Dado Wall Panelling with Reeded Mouldings

Establish preferred height for dado location (approx 900-1100mm

above ﬂoor level). Measure up and mark. Draw horizontal line

across. Use spirit level to ensure the line is level (Fig 6).

Next decide how many panels you want and the size of gaps

between panels. In the following example we are using 3 panels

with 100mm gaps on a 2000mm long wall.

3 panels will give you 4 gaps and if each gap is 100mm wide then

total gaps is 400mm.

Subtract 400mm from 2000mm which equals 1600mm then divide

this by 3 (number of panels) which equals 533mm panel width.

Measure and mark vertical lines on the wall showing where the

panels will be located along the wall (Fig 7).

Using the same gap measurement as above, measure up from

top of skirting, mark and draw horizontal line across. Repeat by

measuring down from previously drawn dado line, mark and draw

horizontal line across. You will now have the size and locations

for 3 panels drawn on the wall (Fig 8).

Measure and cut length of reed moulding to act as a dado. Apply

adhesive to back face of moulding and offer up to wall so bottom

edge of moulding is aligned with dado line. Press ﬁrmly into

position and secure with nail gun (Fig 9).

Next, measure the width and height of the panel sides drawn onto

the wall. This will be the length of the outside (longest) edge of the

moulding. Measure and mark onto reeded mouldings and mitre all

pieces (Fig 10).

Apply adhesive to a vertical and horizontal piece and offer up to

panel lines. Secure with nail gun (Fig 11).

Apply adhesive to next two pieces and offer up to ﬁxed pieces on

wall. Secure with nail gun at circled areas ﬁrst. This will allow you

to align the ﬁnal mitred corner. Once aligned, secure with nail gun

(Fig 12).

Repeat procedure for remaining panels (Fig 13).

Fill any gaps and joints with decorator’s caulk.

Wipe off any excess with a damp cloth.

Sand to a smooth ﬁnish.

You are now ready to paint.
